A sudden sharp left shoulder pain. it's not muscular and feels deeper in. it comes and goes and breathing causes it to hurt. no issue on movement. ?

Get it checked out: If it is not movement related but does get worse with respiration then it is likely coming from your lung. The causes can be pleuritis, pneumonia, a blood clot, etc, so best to have it looked at.
